On this episode we invited Katharine Abrahams from Motion:Theory (@katharine-motiontheory), sublime sounds and hypnotic funk stimulate her being, compelling her to source, mix and access dimensions too many to mention. A natural curator, the journey is micro, psychedelic, soul-stirring and funky; perfect for vibration appreciation in the dance floor sweet spot.

Flipping records and dancing by the side of dj Ben Abrahams for 18 years, their marriage is firmly rooted between decks and dance floor. Their child Eli has lived 6 years of immersion in the most delectable sound waves. They featured on dancefloors back in 2000, as Ben rocked forests and the infamous Melbourne nightclub Onesixone as the Earthcore resident, until a series of adventures found them inhabiting a church in the Byron Bay hills. Children, animals and wild folk were drawn to their all ages acid-house parties at the local Billinudgel Barn, an ecstatic hoe-down to luscious vinyl amidst the surreal Australian bush. Katharine and Ben played records at the early Splendour in the Grass Festivals before moving to Rainbow Bay, to create the freshest experience on the Gold Coast at the infamous Elsewhere Bar.

Katharine danced to Ben's legendary sets, which consistently went off every Saturday for Motion:Theory:Music, from Elsewhere's conception, for 7 years. Dhe played an early set of warm psychedelic house before Ben, and then moved between heaving dance floor and turntables for the spectacularly crazy early morning hours. No words can describe that scene either, but it's imprinted in many memories. Elsewhere won  'Best Music for a Club in Australia' at the Sydney Bar Music Awards at this time.

They are now in Melbourne, where she has dj'd for Killing Time Bar, Black Market, Quality Project, Faceless, Doesnt Matter, Revolver's Mama Said and Mi Casa. Katharine closed the Garden Stage for A Collective Future in the bush, and had everyone vibrating, elevating and connecting. She has created podcasts for Mesa Recordings from Santa Fe, Art-E from Romania podcast and next, she and Ben create for Bonjour Minimal.

Blurring the line between house and techno, their Motion:Theory parties are renowned for involving others who See:With:Their:Ears. Katharine's selections are unique, and mixing style smooth and bass driven. She will twist you new ways with her flow of astral:house. Not one to hold back, whether djing alone or with Ben, she connects the space with energy designed to spiral you up and out.

Katharine - Microtechno Podcast

On this Episode we invited the Oana Leca, born in Romania and now living in Munich and London, for Oana music has always been a part of her life.  At a young age she started to learn piano and her passion and appreciation for music lead her into the world of Dj'ing. With a keen musical ear and high technical savvy, Oana pushes the boundaries of the House, Tech-House and Techno scene forward in each one of her sets, delivering deep, rich and diverse music that the crowd wants to hear.
 Obsessed with the vibe created when a whole room of people is touched and transported by the power of the music, Oana’s aim is to introduce new and diverse musical innovations to the crowd. Driven by a passion for being a part of that feeling that is shared on the dance floor, what motivates her the most is the reciprocal emotions conceived by the sharing of great music.
 Oana’s style is personal but equally simple and universal. In her sets she dives into peoples memories, feelings and most importantly their happiness; creating a harmony with oneself and whoever is there to experience and share their relationship with the music.
